Something that's been bugging me for a bit, was that my blog was only ever
available over unencrypted HTTP.

Even though it's just a simple blog, it would be nicer to be able to just use
the latest tech and best practices. It is my profession after all, so I want
tot set an example. But I use github pages for my blog
(full source here) and I don't really feel like running my own webserver.

Recently I found out though that CloudFlare offers a free service that
effectively puts a SSL/TSL proxy in front of any site, with free SSL
certificates and HTTP/2 support.

So now this blog also has all those features! I feel like I'm back in the game!
